Bowmark partners with PiP and the Canal & River Trust
On 18 July, a team of 13 from Bowmark joined forces with our long-term charity partner, Pursuing Independent Paths (PiP), and the Canal & River Trust for a rewarding day of community action. The event aimed to transform a stretch of the canal between Ladbroke Grove and Great Western Road in West London through gardening and painting activities.
Our team, along with PiP students and staff, worked together to revitalise the canal area, enhancing its beauty and accessibility for the local community. This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to supporting PiP and its incredible work in empowering adults with learning disabilities and autism.
The improvements made during the Canal Day will be maintained by PiP’s newly formed gardening enterprise, ‘Seedlings’. This initiative enhances the community and also provides valuable paid work experience for PiP students, helping them develop their confidence and learn essential skills.
We are proud to support PiP and the Canal & River Trust in their efforts to create a greener, more inclusive community space.
